With “good food” meaning different things to different people, running food programs rooted in “good food” can be tricky territory. In this interactive workshop we’ll explore how cultural, social, and nutritional dimensions of food influence choice. The “What is good food?” workshop is one you can bring back to your organizations and run for staff, volunteers, or other stakeholders in order to have thoughtful discussions about why you serve the food you serve and the role it can play within your community. You’ll come away with the resources you’ll need to and some practice to boot.
